Abstract
An archery bow riser for an archery bow is disclosed. The archery riser, in an embodiment, includes a first section, a frame connected to the first section and a second section connected to the frame. The frame defines a cavity or inner space, and the frame is configured to reduce deformation of at least part of the archery bow riser.
Claims20
An archery bow riser comprising:
- a first section comprising:
- a first section front configured to at least partially face in a forward direction toward a shooting target when the archery bow riser is aimed at the shooting target;
- a first section back configured to at least partially face in a backward direction away from the shooting target when the archery bow riser is aimed at the shooting target;
- a plurality of first section sides positioned apart from each other, wherein a lateral axis extends between the first section sides and intersects with the first section sides;
- a limb mount surface comprising a mount surface point located centrally between the first section sides, the mount surface point being located in a first vertical plane when the archery bow riser is vertically positioned, wherein the lateral axis intersects with the first vertical plane;
- a frame connected to the first section;
- wherein the frame comprises a plurality of frame members arranged to define:
- a first side opening extending in a first side plane, wherein the lateral axis intersects with the first side plane;
- a second side opening extending in a second side plane, wherein the lateral axis intersects with the second side plane;
- a front opening extending in a front plane, wherein the forward direction intersects with the front plane;
- and
- a back opening extending in a back plane, wherein the backward direction intersects with the back plane;
- wherein the frame comprises a frame point located centrally between the first and second side planes;
- wherein the first side plane, the second side plane, the front plane and the back plane surround an inner space;
- and
- a second section connected to the frame, wherein the second section comprises:
- a second section front configured to face in the forward direction when the archery bow riser is aimed at the shooting target;
- a second section back configured to face in the backward direction when the archery bow riser is aimed at the shooting target;
- a plurality of second section sides spaced apart from each other;
- and
- a second section point located centrally between the second section sides;
- wherein the second section point is located in a second vertical plane when the archery bow riser is vertically positioned;
- wherein the second vertical plane is offset from the frame point;
- wherein the second vertical plane is offset from the first vertical plane;
- and
- a third section connected to the second section, wherein the third section comprises a handle.

- a second side opening extending in a second side plane, wherein the lateral axis intersects with the second side plane;
- a front opening extending in a front plane, wherein the forward direction intersects with the front plane;
- and
- a back opening extending in a back plane, wherein the backward direction intersects with the back plane;
- wherein the first side plane, the second side plane, the front plane and the back plane surround an inner space;
- wherein the frame comprises a frame point within the inner space;
- wherein the frame point is located midway between the first and second side planes;
- wherein the frame point is located within a frame point plane;
- wherein the lateral axis intersects with the frame point plane;
- and
- wherein the frame point plane is located apart from the mount surface point;
- and
- a second section connected to the frame.

- connecting the frame to the first section;
- structuring a second section;
- and
- connecting the second section to the frame;
- wherein the frame point is located within a frame point plane;
- wherein the lateral axis intersects with the frame point plane;
- wherein the frame point plane is located apart from the mount surface point.
